You've Fallen for Me Chapter One: The Observer, The King, and The Dark Secert
"Ne! Ne! Did you guys hear?" "Hear what?" "There's suppose to be a girl in Kitsune-kun's class who's a psychic." "Masaka!" "No it's true! They said she knews everything about everyone."
Riku sat at his desk, worn out from morning pratice as his fellow classmates talked among themselves in groups while others were trying to finish their homework before class started. In the back of the class sat a girl no older then him. She had long, sapphire hair and royal blue eyes that shimmered in the sun but the only difference she had today was the bandage on her right hand. Just then the bell rung and the students took their proper seats. The teacher slid the door opened and walked over to his desk before speaking about the days lesson. Class came and went before it was time for lunch came around.
"Ano..Miyuki-chan daijyoubu desuka?" A voice called out to her.
Miyuki looked up from the book she was reading to give the pink hair girl a faint smile.
"Keiko-chan..hai, daijyoubu desu." Miyuki replied. "Honto ni?" Keiko asked. "Honto." Miyuki said reasurring her pink hair friend.
Keiko gave her another worried look before rushing off to her next class. Miyuki sighed and went back to reading her book. She could hear the faint whispers of her fellow classmates talking about her. Supposely, everyone in school thought she was a psychic so they made sure to stay away from her unless they had a reason to approach her. In all honesty, Miyuki wasn't a psychic, she was just an observer. That was why she sat in the back of the class, so she could observe her classmates behavoir and when she finds something new she would scribble it into the black notebook. Soon class began again and Miyuki began to scribble new data she obtained about group of girls in her class. Another few classes went pass and the bell rung again, telling the students class was over for the day.
"Riku!"
Miyuki looked up from her notebook and towards the door where a boy with shoulder length brown hair and topaz eyes.
"Ah, Satsuki." Riku said with a smile. "Come on! Pratice starts in ten minutes." Satsuki said. "Hai! Hai! Ikuyo." Riku said as he packed up his stuff and walked over to the door. "Let's go."
Just as they were about to leave Satsuki caught Miyuki's gaze and gave her a smile. Miyuki quickly looked back down at her notebook before anyone could notice what happened. When she looked back up they were gone and she let out a sigh of relief. A few hours pass by and Miyuki decided it was time to go home before it really got dark. After cleaning up her art studio, she picked up her bag and the novel she was reading before walking down the hall. The light breeze blew her hair back as she walked pass the soccer feild where she knew the team was still praticing due to the screaming fangirls. She stopped at the Sakura tree which was starting to lose it's petals and peeked over her book towards the feild. The team was having a pratice match and Miyuki smiled faintly as she wished Riku best of luck. As soon as the match ended, Miyuki quickly left, not wanting anyone to see her there.
"Hou..nice job Riku." Satsuki said as two different boys approached them. "Oi! Saika." "Hug me and I'll kill you Satsuki." Saika said as the boy tried to give him a hug. "How was the meeting today Otoya?" Riku asked the blue hair boy. "It went good." Otoya replied. "Good job on the match." "Of course! I'm the King of soccer." Riku said with pride. "You mean King of Idiots." Saika said with a smirk. "Damare Saika-nii." Riku said with a pout.
Saika couldn't help but laugh softly as the four of them head home together. Miyuki hesitated as she opened the door to her house.
"Tadaimasu." Miyuki said as she closed the front door. "I made it home on time." "Miyuki?!" A voice called out.
Miyuki took her shoes off and looked up to see her mother standing in the hallway.
"Welcome home!" Her mother said hugging her. "You're late and I was so worried." "..." Mikyuki returned the hug. "How was it? Is the therpy working?" Her mother asked. "Miyuki? Miyuki?" "I'm sorry.." Miyuki said quietly. "I'm still not.." "Ngh.."
Miyuki could fel her mother's tear agaisnt her skin. Again her mother was talking nonsense about how Miyuki wasn't herself. Then next thing she knew her mother had bit her neck and tried to grab her arm screaming and shouting. Just then her father came in and pulled her mother off her.
"Akiko stop it! Myuki is sick!" Her father shouted. "Give me back Miyuki!" Her mother shouted. "Get out of here!" Her father said. "It's okay..she can bite me if she wants." Miyuki said looking at the blood stain on her hand. "Let me see the wound." Her father said softly after he was able to sedate her mother. "It's okay otousan. I'll be fine." Miyuki said with a reassuring smile. "I'll take care of it myself." "..gomen Miyuki.." Her father said catching her off guard. "You're always getting hurt badly when I'm not here..." "It's nothing serious otousan." Miyuki said. "Okasan is just unstable."
Her father nodded and she started to walk up the stairs only to be stopped.
"Miyuki." Her father said. "Nani desuka?" Miyuki replied. "There's nothing wrong with you." Her father said. "You're just fine the way you are now. You did nothing wrong." "Hai..wakaru." Miyuki said. "I'm going to have you stay with your oba-san." Her father said. "Okay?"
Miyuki simply nodded and went to her room to tend to the bite mark on her neck before packing her things to stay with her aunt.
"Ne..Saika, I saw the girl today again." Riku said to his cousin as he laid back on Saika's bed. "Hou.." Saika said from his desk. "Maybe you have a stalker fangirl." "Saikaaaa." Riku whinned. "Nani desuka?" Saika asked. "Don't say that! It gives me the creeps." Riku said as Saika chuckled. "It's not funny either!" "Well, I find it funny." Saika said. "Ah, you better do your homework otherwise you'll be late for pratice tomorrow morning."
Riku quickly got up from the bed and sat on the floor near the table. Sighing he opened up his history book and began his homework. Saika smiled to himself and began to read his book just as his mother walked through the door with a tray of refreshments.
"Are you two studying hard?" She asked. "Hai, okasan." Saika said with a smile. "I just finished my homework up so I'm going to study for my chemistry exam." "Saa, I'll leave you too it then." She replied. "Ah, Riku." "Nani oba-san?" Riku asked looking up at her. "You're okasan would like you to go home now before it gets dark." She answered. "Okay." Riku said closing his book.
After putting his stuff back into his bag, Riku said his goodbyes and made his way home. He was only a few block away from his house when he bumped right into someone, causing the two of them to fall to the floor.
"Itai..." Riku said rubbing his head. "You should really watch where you're going." A voice said.
Riku looked up to see the same girl he saw watching him pratice.
"AH! IT'S YOU!" Riku shouted and pointed at her.
Miyuki had decided it was best if she was to walk to her aunts house, not wanting to cause her father anymore trouble for the day. Her father sighed and agreed before calling his sister to explain that Miyuki would be walking over there. After the phone call Miyuki said her goodbyes to her father and left the house. The cool breeze made her feel relaxed as she started to walk to her aunt's house. Just when she thought her day couldn't get any worse, someone had bumped right into her, causing her to fall onto her butt. That was when she heard it. The voice of the person she most admired. Miyuki nearly flinched as he shouted at her.
"It's rude to point fingers." Miyuki said as Riku quickly stopped pointing at her.
The two stood up and Miyuki brushed herself off before fixing her skirt.
"Ano...daijyobu desu ka?" Riku asked looking at her. "Hai." Miyuki said as she felt butterflies in her stomach. "Gomen ne..I didn't see you there." Riku said apologizing. "It's okay. No harm was done." Miyuki said shaking her head. "E..to..your hurt." Riku said noticing the bandage on her neck. "Ah.." Miyuki said covering her neck with her left hand. "It's nothing to worry about."
Riku was going to say something else but then he remembered he had introduced himself to her yet.
"Watashi Kitsune Riku, dozo yoroshiku." Riku said. "I know. I'm in your class." Miyuki said adjusting the strap to her duffle bag. "Honto ni?" Riku asked thinking for a bit. "AH! You're Fuji Miyuki-san." "Hai, that's me." Miyuki said as she started walking again. "Ano..." Riku said catching up to her. "Do you live around here?" "Hum? I'm going to stay at my aunts house for a few weeks..maybe months." Miyuki replied. "Eh? Doshite?" Riku asked. "Ah..it's hard to explain." Miyuki answered as she thought if she could tell him or not. "Well try! I'm a great listener you know." Riku said with a smile. "And if it's a secret, I'm very good at keeping those too!" "...okay I'll tell you then." Miyuki said.
The two of them walked pass a park and Miyuki decided to make a detour there. She sat at one of the swings and pushed herself back and forth with her feet. Riku tilted his head as he followed her action and took a seat in the empty swing next to her.
"My father sent me to go stay with my aunt because my mother is well uhh I guess you can she's a bit not right in the head." Miyuki said looking up at the sky. "Not right in the head?" Riku asked, wanting her to explain it better. "Yeah. It started six years ago when we got into a car accident." Miyuki said. "I got badly hurt and my mother couldn't stop blaming herself for it. When I was discharged from the hospital, things started to change. My mother became unstable and she would claim that I'm not her child. I really didn't understand at the time and my brother just told me to ignore my mother and so I did." "I didn't know you had a brother." Riku said. "My brother passed away three years ago." Miyuki said with a sad smile. "That was when my mother had her meltdown." "...is that how you got that wound?" Riku asked.
Miyuki was caught off guard by that question but simply nodded her head.
"You won't tell anyone about this right? If word got out about this people will start to pity me and honestly I'm not well liked." Miyuki said. "Doshite?" Riku asked. "Haven't you heard the rumor? They all say I'm a psychic because I know so much about everyone." Miyuki said with an amused look on her face. "Pfft wow, I didn't see that one coming." Riku said with a soft chuckle. "So you'll keep it a secret it then?" Miyuki asked. "Of course, I promise not to tell anyone of what we spoke of today." Riku said. "It's the least I can do for all the times you came to my games and pratice games." "Ah..how did you know?" Miyuki asked trying to fight back a blush. "Not everyone has sapphire blue hair and royal blue eyes." Riku said smiling. "If you don't live to far I can walk you home. It's not safe for a girl to be walking somewhere at this time of night." "Ah..arigatou Kitsune-kun." Miyuki said. "Just call me Riku." Riku said getting up. "After all we are friends now right?" "Right." Miyuki said following his action. "Ano..thank you again."
Riku just nodded with the same old smile and he walked her home, only to find out that her aunt lived right next door to him.
